Lies Lies Damn Statistics

[Squizzy1970]

Unfortunately I am obsessed with stats, and after reading a press article noticed that Roo is close to being in the Top 10 all-time Saints goalkickers. I was also surprised to see Milney is already there!!!

So as long as he dosn't slow down Banger only needs to play another 1209 games to become number 1.

Out of this lot Milney and Reiwoldt are both top ten for goals per game both have both averaged nearly 2 goals per game.

Interesting stuff.

[Look2Me4Guidance]

Shame Jamie Shanahan didn't feature.

[just a line monkey]

Anyone remember Jason Heatley, Wonder how many he kicked?

[Squizzy1970]

Shaners got duck-eggs over 125 games. Thought he might have pinched one somewhere but maybe that was at Melbourne?

Heater - one of the best goals per game average at the club. 163 goals over 60 games (4th best along with Gehrig for those who have played more than 50 games). Think on another thread someone had tracked him down currently playing/coaching at a local club?

[SaintsSeptember]

Best goal kicker also depends who else was playing.
Stewie Lowe would have kicked a lot more if Plugger hadn't been there.
Milne would have kicked a lot less this year if anyone else was there.

[HoldenMCaulfield]

Milne would have kicked a lot less this year if anyone else was there.

anyone else other than e.g. Nick Riewoldt, Justin Koschitzke, Fraser Gehrig and Adam Schneider ?

Sorry I didn't see any of those guys kicking many goals. Some of them were missing a few, and some were struggling to get the ball.

of course Milne would have kicked less goals if anyone else was there instead...?!? :rolleyes:

[Fehring]

7 in the 97 prelim. All other games irrelevant.

Stewie Lowe would have kicked a lot more goals if he could kick.

[stfan]

Well based on that list Roo will prbably make No 4 pretty easily by the end of his career..maybe even No 3.

[wheels4]

good list that is
some good players there

Stewie Lowe would have kicked a lot more goals if he could kick.

What about Heaters kicking 9 against the Kangas during the season in 1997? Ripping work.

[bubblegoose]

There's a bit of daylight between those top 4 blokes isn't there.

Great to see Milne gets another 7 goals & becomes our 5th highest goal scorer. Milne may catch Fraser in a couple of years but can't see him catching Loewey.

Some interesting ones in there though, especially when you look at some of the averages.

[CHBench]

Can't be a better time for Milney to move to number 6 on the list than this week against the Blues. :thumbsu:

More critical information We only have four players in the Top 100 tacklers this season, and one of them was Dal who got dropped for lack of defensive pressure!

Ah, I'm not the only one... I was about to start another lecture for my wife as to just how great Robert Harvey is (she loves it when I do that - I think :o not...).

The top 10 for most marks of all AFL players are:

157 M Richardson
130 N Riewoldt
128 C Young
114 R Murphy
111 N Bock
110 S Fisher

Milney has moved into the top 150 goalkickers (of all-time), level with John Nicholls and Paul Williams, and one behind Barry Breen and Jacko.

[Signd Sealed Saint]

Rooey isn't a full forward and he spends a lot of the time up the ground so u cant expect him to kick a lot of goals. Also his goal kicking doesnt help either :P

[Squizzy1970]

Amazing that the attendance record for StK v Haw is only 43,181. A monty to be broken this week?

Nothing stunning here, except having done the Tigers four times and Essendon and the Swans 3 times. If only we could get Collingwood on the list more often.

Rooey isn't a full forward and he spends a lot of the time up the ground so u cant expect him to kick a lot of goals. Also his goal kicking doesnt help either :P

His conversion seems pretty poor, I'm wondering though (attn: Champion Statistician Extraordinaire Squiz!) how Roo's conversion rate sizes up against other Key forwards of the modern era?

Milney has moved into the top 150 goalkickers (of all-time), level with John Nicholls and Paul Williams, and one behind Barry Breen and Jacko.That is just really amazing! He'll still incur some creative bagging from opp supps for being crap - regardless of the stats. If he was a different player for a different team what dsort of coverage would this get, I wonder?

What's amazing about this list is that you have to go back to #14 to find anything from our golden years of 2004-06 and to number 9 to find anything from the 2000s at all. Sure, we've won a lot of games but the rule of thumb has been - put a four goal space on us, and you've probably got us on toast. Nice to see we've broken that thumb.

Spot on Fez.

With that win against the Bombers that was only by a point.

So to turn around a sizeable deficit and come away with a sizeable win is something that hasn't been seen in a long time.

Even the steadying win against the Blues when they came at us with a fantastic sign.

Don't know what sort of Statistic it is, but Sam Fisher has the highest average weekly dreamteam score of all defenders.

[Armitage2Riewoldt]

How many games have we won when behind at quarter time?

[Persevering Saint]

Don't know what sort of Statistic it is, but Sam Fisher has the highest average weekly dreamteam score of all defenders.
And STILL won't make the AA team...

[Squizzy1970]

Lots (over 250 times in our very long history). Note (in the dark dim days pre-Telstra Dome) we also used to play in the wind which often favoured one end of the ground. The Moorabbin wind was a ripper - whoever designed the grandstand to not block the southerly wind was a numbnut).

[Squizzy1970]

And STILL won't make the AA team...

The commentators hardly seem to notice how good the bloke is. Cannot believe he didn't make it last year so nothing will surprise this year.

[TassieSaint]

If Milburn makes the AA team before Fisher there will be holes in several walls in my house. If Harley makes the AA team before Fisher the selectors will be recieving death threats. If Enright makes the AA team before Fisher I will be burning down AFL house. If Andrew ****ing Mackie makes it before Fisher there will be no survivors. Unfortunately judging by last year all 4 will make it ahead of Chips >: [

Fully agree regarding Milburn, Mackie and, to a lesser extent though, Enright.

Harley, however, had a very good year - maybe even better than Scarlett.

Harley is good because he reads the play very well and, as we are constantly reminded of by Robert Walls and company, marks more balls from opposition passes than any other player in the AFL.

Scarlett is good because of his speed and athletic ability. He can run forwards off their feet and be far more damaging with his attack than his forward (whom he'll often take care of on the way).

One could argue that Fisher is a combination of both. He is a first class defender by now, he has very strong hands (only Richo and Riewoldt have taken more marks this season), is quick and has an attacking mindset (one of the best goals I have seen was his run over the entire ground with a quick one - two pass in the middle in 2006 against Geelong).

Were he playing for Geelong, his odds for AA would be 1.00.

Is there still time for Matthew Egan to get back and take it off Sammy again?

Interestingly (to me anyway) this is the 5th season in a row that Milne has played 21 games or more.

I had not realised he was so resilient, but the recent fracture at Subi shows he's got some guts.

could someone please tell me the averege of of the saints lists with harvey and gehrig and without harvout and gehrig.

thanks

[Squizzy1970]

Doesn't make much difference, as we have 44 players (including rookies).

The average age with rookies is around 24.5. Excluding #35 and #9 is is 24.

Excluding rookies you're looking at 25.1 yrs vs 24.6 yrs.

Dream Team Scores against Cats. These points can be a useful way of comparing total statistics.

As far as scoring dreamteam points against the cats
our top 4 scorers hold their own. If we had Ball it would be 5. We are short of four players who can score better than 100.
2 Nicks, Kosi, DalSanto , and Gram are the players we are relying on.
Well done to Jones, Gilbert, Eddy, and Raph for outshining the stars.

Given that taggers and defenders don't get rated properly by dreamteam points I would rate our worst players as - Gwilt, X, Riewoldt and Gardner

Sam Fisher 116 - 2 Cats scored better than this
Lenny 112
Joey 108 - 3 Cats scored better than this
BJ 108
So far not so bad but next down is
Jones 93 - 9 Cats scored more than 99
King 84
Gilbert 83
Schneider 83
Eddy 75 12 Cats scored better than this.
Raph 64
Kosi 63
Harvey 63
DalSanto 61
Gram 60
Milne 58
Gardner 55
Mc Qualter 54
Nick Riewoldt 54
X 50
Blake 46
Gwilt 42
Max 17

nice Squizzy..

found the King tackle stat interesting.. Gardiner not so suprising.. Xman isn't also.. thats why I rate him... injury free that is.. :)

[SaintsSeptember]

I've noticed Kingy gets the odd tackle in. They look like they would be felt as well.

[Squizzy1970]

Gardiner not so suprising.. Xman isn't also..


The bits I found interesting is that X had one more bounce than Sam F - even though he played only 8 games (Sam 25).

Similarly with Gardi - only 9 games vs Kosi's 22 (and noting limited TOG during these games).

[Squizzy1970]

I've noticed Kingy gets the odd tackle in. They look like they would be felt as well.

I didn't know they counted the ones where he comes over the top of a pack and tackles 4 players (including his own guys)! :D

But a 3.5 tackles per game average from your ruckman is bloody good - shows how much of a team player he is.

well thats why I was surprised by some comments about Gardiner and X towards the end of the season.. x does get the ball and bounce, he just didn't play that much this season.. Gardiner though I thought started off the year very well IMO and outclassed King on a few occasions.. I am surprised that Fish had one less bounce though obviously... :)
